Threads of Saffron are the gold of spices. Precious and rare, Saffron comes from a lovely violet crocus. Only three stigmas, or threads, are hand picked from each flower. Intensely flavored, a single pinch of Saffron pleasantly flavors an entire dish. Use in Italian risotto, paella, Spanish and French seafood stews. Our Spice Islands saffron threads come from Spain. Deep orange-red in color, the threads.
